Chapter 151 Seeking Help

“Didn’t you hear the conversation between Aren and me just now? Our relationship is not good, so he won’t help me. About that, you can rest assured.”

“As for what you said about stalling for time, it’s even more unlikely. Don’t you already have the secret? What’s the point of me stalling for time? Besides making you angrier and punishing me more, it won’t bring me any benefits.”

“The reason why I said next week is that I need to accompany Madam Brown this week. If I don’t appear in front of Madam Brown on time, she will definitely be angry and investigate my whereabouts. When that time comes, everything between the two of us will be exposed.” “If the thing between us is exposed, I believe you know better than me what kind of trouble and consequences it will bring us. After all, I won’t be the only one who suffers.”

Jocelyn gave a serious and convincing explanation, which dispelled the doubts Miles had.

It also calmed him down quite a lot. Jocelyn was right. If the thing between them was exposed, not only would Jocelyn not benefit from it, but he would also receive a heavy blow. In fact, he might end up worse than Jocelyn.

Miles only wanted benefits and physical pleasure. He didn’t plan to sacrifice himself for Jocelyn, and it wasn’t a big deal to wait until next week. He could take this opportunity to prepare himself and give Jocelyn an unforgettable night.

What was more, at that time, he was too focused on listening to the conversation between Jocelyn and Aren so that he forgot to record it. As a matter of fact, he had nothing to threaten Jocelyn with.

But obviously, Jocelyn didn’t know this, and what she said reminded him that he needed to find something to threaten Jocelyn, and with a few more days, he could definitely find some.

In these two minutes of silence, Miles successfully convinced himself.

“Alright, I’m flexible. I can wait until next week, but if you don’t show up in my room on time next week, you know what will happen.”

Miles threatened again. He looked at Jocelyn’s face and saw fear.

“I’ll remember it. If you have nothing else to say, I’ll get going. I’ve already made an appointment with someone. I can’t explain if I’m late.”

Jocelyn looked at Miles’s bulging lower body, so nervous that she could barely feel her face. She didn’t know what kind of expression was on her face now. All she knew was that she had to leave as soon as possible.

After getting permission from Miles, Jocelyn took a few steps backward to widen the distance between her and Miles, then quickly sped up, scurrying out of the woods.

When Jocelyn was out of the woods and stood on the main road of the school again, she felt the warmth of the sun on her face. She felt like she had just survived a disaster, and her cold hands and feet gradually became warm.

A warm wind blew across Jocelyn’s body, making her shudder. Only then did Jocelyn realize that she had been so nervous that cold sweat had broken out on her body and soaked her clothes.

Fortunately, she managed to escape and earned herself a few more days.

Yes, Jocelyn lied.

Other than meeting Madam Brown before her engagement, she had not been able to see that amiable old lady again, let alone spend a week with her.

However, Miles didn’t know about it.

In the past few years, Jocelyn had been busy attending school and earning money. She did not know who else she could ask for help from except Eliza.

Although she told herself not to trouble Eliza too much, she couldn’t find anyone to help her now.

Jocelyn took out her phone and called Eliza. The call was picked up as soon as the phone rang. Eliza’s cheerful voice was heard through the phone.

“Hey, my dear Jocelyn, why did you call me? Did you miss me?”

“We’ve only been separated for one lesson, and you can’t resist anymore?”

Hearing Eliza’s teasing tone, Jocelyn blinked and forced back the tears that were about to fall from her eyes.

“Eliza, I need your help.”
